Brain memory code cracked, claims scientists

What's Hawt: Despite a century of research, memory encoding in the brain has remained mysterious. Neuronal synaptic connection strengths are involved, but synaptic components are short-lived while memories last lifetimes. This suggests synaptic information is encoded and hard-wired at a deeper, finer-grained molecular scale.

Imagine scientists being able to manipulate your memories in the future, that could be some pretty scary stuff.

Like in The Matrix, when Trinity needs to fly a helicopter or when Neo learns all fighting styles in a sitting.

If politicians get their hands on it in any way I will want my own island away from every body as soon as possible.

asmith23064420d ago

If that happens can I join you? Ill bring beers.

I wanna be on that island too. I can plant crops and take care of the animals. I know we gonna have to build houses too. I am good at those things. I want no part in a world where people will be directly manipulated to do the bidding of evil men.

reminds me of the movie the island.

I can imagine teachers being irrelevant in about 20 years if scientists can let us store information into our brains.

wjbjnr4421d ago

The thing that comes in my mind is............. COD : Black OPS :). What happened to that guy whose memory was encrypted with a signal could really be possible!
